Sarah Millican

Growing up in South Shields in England's far north-east, Sarah had not even entered a comedy club until her first nights performance.

Over the last couple of years she has been making many appearances on TV in panel games and general prime-time entertainment shows such as the BBC's magazine programme The One Show.
